Is Chaos Science via Supercomputers really the "best" means possible to solve Abrupt Global Warming?

yes Ian Stewart is a quantum chaos mathematician. I call Strogatz a quantum chaos math professor, by default, since quantum physics has been the foundation of science since the early 1900s.

So Strogatz emphasizes, for example, that a fractal broccoli is actually not a real fractal and therefore not really chaotic. A chaotic system depends on logistic symmetric math logic whereas quantum physics is inherently asymmetric or noncommutative. I have corresponded with quantum physics professor Basil J. Hiley about this, also Dr. Ruth E. Kastner and also Nobel physicist Brian Josephson.

So you state that supercomputers are the "best" means - using chaos math - yes I recommend the book by Professor, coauthor with quantum physicist Menfas Kafatos, Professor Robert Nadeau, called "Environmental Endgame." If you read back in the thread - I discuss this book. But you'll note that the Economist review of the book refused to even acknowledge that the subject of the book was chaos math of the supercomputers modeling global "heating" as you want to call it.

So in terms of the quantum chaos aspect - the key feature is that as the CO2 increases then the quantum phase boundaries overlap creating a larger "frequency" range for photon absorption by the CO2 molecules - I noted this above already. My point being that quantum biology is a new field - and was considered "woo woo" even by biology professor PZ Myers - just back in 2006 - when I was promoting Professor JohnJoe McFadden on the "top" science blog by Myers. So yes "supercomputer iterations" are the "best" that science can do, but as Number Theory points out (Schroeder)  - chaos math is simply the irrational decimals being shifted from the right to the left as the initial conditions are changed.

So yes as you point out - chaos is about time while fractals are about space - but quantum physics as the foundation of reality inherently has time NOT as an outside parameter, but instead as a "linear operator" thereby creating the inherent limit of science as "time-frequency uncertainty" or Fourier Uncertainty, bound by Planck's Constant. So science studies this boundary in quantum chaos - with the assumption that the inherent quantum indeterminacy thereby does not allow the inherent uncertainty to resonant to macro-quantum levels.

That, of course, depends on the inherent dependency of scientists using external measurements - and so some scientists believe that quantum chaos will enable AI to be the next level of evolution, via synthetic biology or synthetic ecology or "digital biology" using quantum computing and nanobiomotors, for example. But this ignores the entropy inherent to the symmetric math relied on thus far in science - whereby any external measurement has to be converted from the noncommutative phase into a closed Pauli Exclusion Principle (using 720 degree phase as spin via the Poisson Bracket).

So whether something is nonlinear or linear is not the real issue. Reality is noncommutative phase, as math professor Alain Connes has pointed out - this goes against all the symmetric math thus far, that even most quantum physics relies on. I don't agree with Connes' quantum computing AI future - or as math professor Luigi Borzacchini calls it the "deep pre-established disharmony"  that is the "guiding evolutive principle" of science. In other words - Borzacchini calls it "Plato's Computer" - I have corresponded with Borzacchini also but he's retired now and his book remains in Italian. But the point being that the "authoritarian" math that Strogatz warned about in 2006 - from chaos supercomputers is not a new thing at all. Philosophy of science professor Oliver L. Reiser called it "the music logarithmic spiral." There is a structural deterministic drive to science, inherent in the symmetric mathematical logic. This is expounded by Ian Stewart for example in his book "Why Beauty is Truth: A History of Symmetry."

So if you think Western science can "save" ecology from abrupt global warming - and that the supercomputers really "care" about the future of life on Earth - I do not agree. The US military has issued a big study on Nanobiomotors - as the final dialectic of Man vs Nature vs Machine. Now what I think is left out is the 5th dimension as the foundation of reality - this is what noncommutative phase refers to or what the relativistic quantum physicists also discovered as the corroboration of Daoist Neigong alchemy - Eddie Oshins at Standford Linear Accelerator Center.

Chaos science is based on a Platonic ideal that does not exist in Nature.
